It's hard when you have a good idea and somebody else gets the
credit for a similar one. I've had that happen although not
professionally and it can be painful when it happens. I read
your paper. While I don't "do the math", I can read the English
just fine and the 'gist' of the concepts make sense as written
out to me. It seems to me, at first glance (Mind you, I spend 2
minutes skimming a paper that likely took you a very long time
to do, so I apologize for any easy mistakes here) that you're
doing some borrowing of Time in order to perform "better than
simultaneous" operations. In that way, it beats parallel and
makes speed of operations irrelevant because you cannot simply
"add" "how long did this operation take?" + "how long did that
operation take"? = total operation time in your model. If this
is the 'gist' of what you've done, then I definitely approve
